Anyone got a Honda document on this?
Or know how to do this? It seems my retrofitter is back from the dead and could do my retro soon!

Pretty straight-forward. To remove the bumper there are 2 screws in each wheel well and a bunch of bolts and a few hex key bolts on the bottom of the bumper. Remove all those and then carefully pull the bumper out from the sides and then slide forward to remove. The headlights are on brackets that attach to the chassis by 3 or 4 bolts that are all easily visible once you take off the bumper. I don't have pictures but this was the first thing I ever did to my car (as a noob and a half) so you can do it trust me.

I am quite excited about my retro..
I found a pdf that shows all the bolts/clips A B C D E F, do I remove them in alphabetical order?
How long would you say a bumper removal takes?

Smooth!
The retrofitter said hes done tons of Accords and will do all bumper removal and headlight install himself! Thats a load off my back there that I don't need to worry about when hes doing the work.

No need to take them out alphabetically, just put everything back in the right place.
